Today is 2026 Topps release day but I'm not done with 2025 yet. These showed up yesterday.

Looking to get some outside perspective on comps for a 2024 Mookie Betts Topps Now purple border /25, game-used base. The base is pretty worn, which I believe might add some additional rarity.

I traded into it at a show and had it valued around $320 on my end. Curious if that feels in line with recent comps or if there’s anything comparable I should be looking at, either similar Topps Now GU pieces or other low numbered Mookie game-used cards.

I wanted to share a few recent pickups from a card show earlier today. Continued building out the rainbow foil Project70 run with an Ohtani Distorted (pop 2) /70—one of those pieces where the color and execution really carry the card.

Also traded into this Munetaka Japanese card (pop 1) /50 as he heads into what could be a big debut season with the White Sox.

The LeBron SSP case hit was another one that landed, those always seem to stand out on their own.

Lastly, I traded for a 2024 Mookie Topps Now purple border game-used base /25 #188D. It’s a legitimately dirty game-used relic, which adds some additional value. I had it trade-priced around $320 at the show, but curious how others would price it out, or if there are any comps.

Couldn’t believe my eyes last night I had to call it quits in the 15th what a game and Freddy still bangs

I thought I'd post another dope unlicensed card, this time of a guy who's playing baseball tonight!

p.s. thanks to everyone for their wrong opinions on unlicensed cards, thereby keeping prices super low for collectors like me 👍
